Mrs. Connors sat before the fire for a long
time rejecting on Luke's story. She was
a pious woman, and devotedly attached 10
her holy faith. She hesitated to harbor
the Thought of the ''goings on at kelly's.
She had on more than one occasion caught
Luke in a fb. And had she c~roas-qnestion-
ed him closely now she would have dis
covered that it was not on Hallow eve night
that Kelly had his festal time, bat several
nights before. Luke, however, had a first
class p~oetical license, aud to cover an es-
capade Of his told his mother that kelly's
party took place on Hallow eve night. The
misinfOrmatiOn was 50 startling TO Mrs.
Couners that she forgot TO investigate the
cause Of Luke's absence.
Luke left his home with the best inteL-
tions in the world, determined to return at
an hour acceptable to his mother. But he
told a longer story than usual in Billy
Smlthers' dog house, and therefore when
he and his companions set ont for their
homes il was not an hour from midnight.

Curely.
"Oh, itmusht be afther erleven O'clock"

The lads were now at Bnrnham's Cor

they heard sounds that suggested wood

of explanation.
"P'r'aps it's Eddie" said Luke. lies

The trio entered Burnham's yard and
were soon at the cellar window. But all

Delayed on his journey. Henry West,
wick only reached Venice in time to Join
the guests over their coffee and cigars.
Observing the splendOr of the reception
rooms and taking note especially OF the
artful mixture Of comfort aud luxury in
the he'd chambers, be began TO share the
nurses views OF the future, and to con-
template seriously the coming dividend OF
10 per cent. The hotel was beginning

the enterprise had been aroused at home

whole accommodation of the building had
been secured by travellers of all nations

one of the small rooms on the upper floor
hy a lucky accident, the absence OF the
gentleman who had written TO engage it.
He was quite satisfied, and was on his way
to bed when another accident altered his
prospects for the night and moved him in
to another and a better room.
Ascending on his way to the higher re-
gions rs far rs the first floor Of the hotel,
Henry attention was attra"ted to an angry
voice protesting, in strong New England
accent, against n of the greatest hard
ships that can be inflicted on a citizen Of
the United States 20 the hardship Of sending
him to bed without gas in his room.
The Americans are not only the most
hospitable people to be found on the face
of the e~arth-they are (uuder certain con-
ditions) the most patient and good temper.
ed people as we'll. But they are human
and the limit of American endurance is
found in the obsolete institution Of a bed
room candle. The American traveller, in
the present case, declined to believe that
his bedroom was in s completely furnished
state without a gas burner. The manager
pointed to the fine antique decorations

it is not are for children TO take up the
political battles OF their fathers and TO feel
more aggrieved over the defeats of their
elders than they do themselves. A certain
up-eountry gentleman, who had been
pledged an office by Governor McGill, and,
like many others, failed to get told his
wife in the presence Of his 6ve-year-old son
of his disappointment and his opinion o.
the Governor.
That night the mother, while putting the
boy to bed, took occasion to caution him
against using some very strong words that
his father had. Before kneeling down to say
his prayers the child inquired Of her lift
was always wicked to swear. She replied
that she thought there were times when
God would forgive people for proiane lam

Then the child prayed:

the need of composing herself, took refuge
for a few minutes in her own room.

their hearts are in what they do. TSs
